The Big Blue!

After the suffereings of jetlag in Sydney, came the mighty Blue Mountains! Where we did some mighty walks up and down so-called "Giant Stairway", "Fuber Steps" and the "Golden Stairway"...I've come to the conclusion that they give them nice names to make you walk them, when really they should say..."this way's gonna kill ya"! We did the walk to the Runied Castle whcih nearly did kill us...over a rocky landslide, through a hot rainforest before climbing up loose rocks to a pile a stones! Before walking all the way back to go up the bloody Golden stairway, which were really just bloomin' stpe carved into the cliff edge which left you tugging on to tree branches roots for dear life! Not to mention the big ants in the forest, that though they be small...I could see teh look in their eyes, they were just waiting to trio me over and then they's attack...like the little people in Ted Danson's Gulliver Travels' or more recently Ben Stiller in Night at the Museum (saw on plane along with 6 others)! So instead i ran for it and left them behind waving the fists in anger! Also jen twisted her ankle...was gonna leave her behind but though better of it ; )

Then it was back to Sydney...where I got ill...it was horrible...that's all I'll say, that and I'll never eat in China town anywhere again! But we managed to do the sights: The Sydney tower, teh Harbour bridge and Opera House and a visit to the aqaurium where I stroked a shark! It was a baby....but still hada crazy look in its eye! xx
